The Young Men Of the south will Not

From the Savannah News.
There is phase OF life at the South which mot
only gives occasion for earnest thought, but for
serious alarm. When the war closed, and for a
number OF years after, the changed condition OF
affairs led many young men TO believe that the
cities and towns afforded the best fields for making
q living. Farms and farm-houses were in ruins,
labor was disorganized, and there seemed TO be no
profit In filling the ground To very great extent
therefore, young men sought the centers OF popu-
lation, while their fathers rented the farms 10
negroes. Many found employment as clerks In
stores others entered some or the learned pro-
LESSONS. As rule, the clerks received small sal
aries, and when the busy season was over their
occupation was gone until the return OF fall In
the summer months some went back TO the farms,
and engaged In irregular work; but the majority
remained upon the scene OF their spasnodic careers
as clerks and kicked their shns In idleness Those
who entered q professional life Jared no better

farms has two unfortunate results one Is tnat

suits open to young men In the cities and towns
yearly become more crowded, thus lessening the
exodus ought to stop. II is based upon a fallacy.
Young men who remain on the farms and culti-

About Life Insurance.

recollection Of our oldest readers it
was regarded as sacrilege for one to
insure his lite. An eminent clergyman
once expressed it as "a distrust of Di-
vine Providence" Happily for the
interests OF the people that supersti-
ton no longer exists. Life insurance
is advocate and practiced by the
clergy, the financier, the business man.

JEREMIAH BLACK.

YER.

Mrs. Mary Black Clayton, daughter
of Jerry" Black has lately published
"reminiscences of her distinguished
father. At Lamerset, Pa, there re-
sided Chauncey Forward a most las
cinating man; brilliant and instructive
in conversation, polished, kindly and
gentle in manner, handsome and re
fined in appearance. Young Black be-
came a frequent visitor to the For
ward mansion. Mrs Clayton tells the
sequel in this pretty way:
There we're eight little Forwards.
The oldest was a daughter and her
name was Mary. When Mr.;
Black. as he was always called
in the Forward family, first
knew them Mary was a pretty child,
to whom he used to take little pres
ents and notice from his lofty height
of nine years seniority. He observed
that she was q womanly little thing,
the model eldest daughter in a family
of very moderate means, and numer-
Gus "olive branches" After a time
she went to boarding school at Cum
berland, Md When she. returned Mr..
Black discovered that she had bios

an. She had changed very much, and
had taken on q certain dignity which
from that day to this has never de-
| serted her. There was no more pet
ting at that time from Mr.. Black.
| His manners was different. HIS
visits to the Forward mansion be-
came more than ever interesting. She
| still thought he came solely to hold
intellectual communion with her ia
ther, and as they walked the floor
and talked of every subject between
| heaven and earth she sat and listened
and learned and admired them both.
In the course OF time, however, he be-
gan to go there on Sunday mornings,
when Mary thought he might have
known that both her parents had
gone to church, and left her at
home to look after the seven little
Forwards. Very often he brought q
book with him and read it to her, or
took one from the shelves and dis
cussed it With her, their enjoyment be-
ing a little marred by the clamorous
wants of the seven. Gradually he
came to realize that his life could not
be whole without the companionship
Of the gentle and appreciative Mary.
She understood and recognized his
genius and had abounded faith that a
great future was before him and in
him, and entered upon her partner
ship with a devotion that grew
and strengthened until the sad
10th of August, 1888. Mr.. and
Mrs. Forward already loved and
respected him, and it seemed to them
no unnatural thing that their daugh.
ter should one day marry him. al.

child at the time Of her engagement
